Jacked up a corner and span the wheel a few time's.

The problem was.............i spoke to soon  :lol: It's still doing it. B*g*r!

I jacked the drivers side front wheel and put a mark on the tyre.

I did the same with the rear wheel on the passenger side.

I gave the front wheel one full turn (so the mark on the tyre whent back to the same place as it started from) and the mark on the rear wheel is no where near the piont it started from?

You could do similar and count prop shaft rotations for one wheel rotation for both ends. This will tell you what the diff ratios are.

Ya clever git, why didn't i think of that  :oops:
Cheers mate, i'll give it ago.

It may be worth checking that there isn't 1 old tyre and 3 new or different sizes front to rear (they may say the same size but if they are remolds and different make they probably wont be the same size)
